Per Woj:
New Orleans owner Gayle Benson has been angry over the Davis trade demand and her belief that "outside forces" are trying to push the franchise into decisions that don't make sense for it, league sources said.
Her mandate has been to "take back control from outside forces," one league source told ESPN. Benson has been adamant with the organization to find a pathway to sustainable winning in one of the league's smallest markets, and plans to be aggressive in pursuing the best available candidates to oversee basketball operations, league sources said.
Among preliminary possible candidates, league sources tell ESPN: former Cleveland GM David Griffin.
So, Gayle, you would consider hiring the GM that helped Lebron build his title team in Cleveland, and Lebron is the guy who just screwed you with AD?
How exactly is that "taking back control from outside forces" ?
They can't be serious with this ****. Wow, I can't believe a team led by these idiots isn't at the top of a cutthroat $100 billion industry with the world's smartest.
Stunning. I also heard that Ben Simmons can actually shoot 45% on 3's off the dribble, but he's just a great teammate who doesn't want JJ Reddick to feel bad or unspecial. Once JJ leaves he'll pull a Chitwood and lead the league in 3pt %.
